Control Human Delete
Star One

 

[Zephyrus]

Arcturus?

Yes, strange that I forgot that. The last two albums qualify for sure.

Bands that give me that feeling:

-Darkspace
-Nocturnus
-Wormed
-Arcturus
-Origin for sure

Can't remember much right now..

 

[Zephyrus]

Did you make those up?

No he didn't. Control Human Delete is an industrial black/death metal band from Holland, and Star One is a progressive metal band from the same country. Both have sci-fi themed lyrics.

 

[AchrisK]

I didn't really think he made them up. They just sound made up

So are they any good? I am pretty leary of industrial influences. I didn't used to be, but now I am.

 

[Zephyrus]

Control Human Delete are pretty good. Ars Diavoli can give you a better conception of them.

Star One I haven't heard of. If you like the whole progressive metal/rock kind of thing, it may be worth checking out.

 

[Burkhard]

no mention of Voivod?

They were the first to come to my mind when I read the thread-title.

Not mentioned yet:
Sacred Blade

np: Mekong Delta - "Black Sabbath"

Did you make those up?

No way. Control Human Delete formed during the year 2001 and has released an EP and an album so far. They released their first album not too long ago this year, it's about as industrial/sci fi sounding as it gets for metal. I'd even go as far as calling it the ultimate industrial metal album

Star One is a progressive metal band created by the mastermind Arjen from the band Ayreon. They've only released one album (not counting the live album) and it's pretty good. It's pretty much progressive metal with spacey influences.

I've only heard their first but I don't really get "sci-fi" from Darkspace. Seems to fit into that category as well as Lunar Aurora (as in, not too well at all).

 

[Skepticism]

Some Edge of Sanity maybe.

 

[tagradh]

Wormed and Devin Townsend's new album are the only things that come to mind straight away. I think System Shock may also have sci fi themed lyrics but I can't remember.

 

[Helspyre]

Gamma Ray
Manticora
Primal Fear
Iron Savior

 

[~ED~]

The Kovenant?

 

[R'lyeh]

Ayreon is pretty sci-fi. Universal Migrator Pt 1 The Dream Sequencer is pretty good.

 

[Zephyrus]

The Kovenant?

Yes.
